Question

what do you understand by an electric field ? define the intensity of electric field .


electric field is defined as the region around a charge particles where another charge particles experience an electric force when placed at any point in the field.

Answer 1

the electric field intensity at a point is equal to the magnitude of the to the force experienced by unit( test )charge placed at a point and is directed along the direction of the force experienced.

$e = \frac{f}{q.}$

$limx \: tends \: to0 \: \: \frac{f}{q.}$

• the si unit of electric field intensity Is n/c.

or v/m.

• it is vector quantity and it's direction is the same as force on the positive test charge...
